Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the JSON-LD code in your structured data. The error message indicates that the
url
property is empty, which is causing the problem.To resolve this issue, you need to ensure that the
url
property contains a valid URL. Here’s how you can fix it:-
Update the JSON-LD Code: Modify the
url
property in your JSON-LD code to include the correct URL of your website. For example:{ "@type": "WebSite", "@id": "https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Add-a-forward-slash-to-the-sitemap-URL-2.png", "url": "https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Add-a-forward-slash-to-the-sitemap-URL-2.png", "name": "Eats Japan", "alternateName": "Japan", "publisher": {"@id": "https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Add-a-forward-slash-to-the-sitemap-URL-2.png#organization"}, "inLanguage": "en-US", "potentialAction": { "@type": "SearchAction", "target": "https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Add-a-forward-slash-to-the-sitemap-URL-2.png?s={search_term_string}", "query-input": "required name=search_term_string" } }
Make sure to replace

with your actual website URL. -
Validate Your Schema: After updating the JSON-LD code, you can validate it using Google’s Rich Results Test tool to ensure there are no errors. You can access it here.
-
Update Your Website: Once validated, update the JSON-LD code on your website with the corrected version.
-
Re-submit to Google Search Console: After making these changes, go back to Google Search Console and request a re-crawl of your site to ensure that Google picks up the updated structured data.

How to update JSON-LD code in Rank nath SEO?
Hello,
The URL is automatically added from the data you input in the Local SEO module, so you won’t need to add it via JSON-LD code.
To add the URL in the schema, head over to Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Local SEO > URL
Once done, clear your website’s cache and validate your URL using Google’s Rich Results test.
Let us know how this goes.
Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

The URL property is still empty.

Hello,
Please note that Rank Math automatically fetches the data for the Sitelinks Search Box schema. Since the URL is not getting fetched, you can follow this guideline to check if any other plugins/themes are conflicting with Rank Math: https://rankmath.com/kb/check-plugin-conflicts/
If the issue persists, you can share the WordPress and FTP logins in the sensitive data section so that we can check this further for you.
However, from November 21, Google has completely removed the Sitelinks Search Box feature from SERPs: https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2024/10/sitelinks-search-box
Since there are no uses of this schema on your website any longer, you can use the following filter to remove this from your website:
add_filter( 'rank_math/json_ld/disable_search', '__return_true' );
Here’s how you can add filter/hook to your WordPress site: https://rankmath.com/kb/wordpress-hooks-actions-filters/
Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.
